    Are you taunting me with this garbage?

    At least Mel Ott was properly recognized. Gonna fire the GM for leaving him the minors for so long though.

    Amazing.

    Yes. But also no. I can't think of any other catcher more definitively deserving of being the Silver Slugger at catcher. And, while other's had the case to be in the conversation, Hoiles was put over the top via sentiment stretching from his valiant performance in the Home Run Derby. It's not like the voters were inclined to give it to SIlver King.
